Product Description
Buick LaCrosse 2010-2013 Trunk Accent, 1.5-Inch Polished Stainless (RD50520)
RD50520 is the trunk piece of a three-part rear set for the Buick LaCrosse sedan, model years 2010 through 2013. The strip is 1.5 inches wide, cut from 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, and made in the USA. It is one piece and holds with 3M tape.
The rear set
Two other parts are linked to this LaCrosse listing, and both belong on the back of the car:
- LP50520, a one-piece license plate bezel
- RB50520, a one-piece rear bumper trim accent, 2.5 inches wide
Stacked from top to bottom, that is the trunk strip at 1.5 inches, the bezel around the plate, and a wider bumper band at 2.5 inches. Ordering all three lets you set the spacing in one sitting.
Years
Buick LaCrosse, 4-door sedan, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013.
Width preview
Cut painter's tape to an inch and a half and stick it on the lid where the photos show the strip. If you plan on the bumper accent too, tape that width as well and look at both together from behind.
Polished 304
26-gauge 304 stainless. The mirror finish is the steel itself, with no plated layer to lift.
3M tape
The 1.5" LaCrosse strip sits over the existing surface on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Buick sedan.
Getting the lid clean
Wash the trunk and dry it. Then wipe the strip's footprint with a residue-free cleaner until a clean cloth shows no wax or film. Repair flaking clearcoat before mounting, since tape holds only as well as the paint.
Order of work
Start with the trunk strip. Hold it in place with the liner on, measure from each end to the lid edges, and mark with painter's tape. Once it's on, fit the bezel, then the bumper accent, judging the gaps from a few steps back each time.
Pressing it on
Pick a dry, mild day. Peel the liner and press from the center outward with steady pressure. The Installation tab has the full steps.
Care
Give it a few days before the first wash, then use mild soap and a soft cloth; skip abrasive polish.
Why stainless
Check the bezel and bumper accent listings for their finish if you want all three to match. A light scuff on solid 304 shows more of the same steel.
What a deck accent is
A decorative strip for the trunk lid. It doesn't replace any factory part and doesn't affect how the trunk opens.
Spacing three bright lines
With three polished pieces on the rear, even gaps matter more than exact positions. Leave the liners on the bezel and bumper accent while you check them against the mounted trunk strip.
No side trim linked
The LaCrosse record links only the rear parts. For pillar or wheel well trim, call and ask what's available.
Before ordering
Confirm the year and sedan body, and decide whether you want just the trunk strip or the full rear set.

Installation tips: Rear Deck Accent
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
